The "Will she? Won't she?" debate rages on, as debates are wont to do, over whether Amy Winehouse will in fact make it to the Grammys in Los Angeles this weekend, where she's rumoured to be performing and may, possibly, pick up six whole awards. All that stands in the way is one little visa allowing the singer to travel to the US, a slight problem for people who've just been filmed allegedly honking on a crackpipe. Meanwhile, Winehouse has simply been going about her business: drying out in rehab, visiting her hubby in the nicker, dropping in to chat to police about that video and popping her head round to the door of the American embassy to say: "Hiyer! Gis a visa, go on, let us in!"

Here's the thing though, she apparently write songs too. And if she's lucky: "Amy Winehouse will get to write the new James Bond theme as well as croon it - but ONLY if she stays off drugs for two months."

Winehouse, so says the Sun, has to prove she's managed to stay off drugs until April, when the Bond theme is being recorded. An "insider" from the new Bond movie, Quantum of Solace, is said to have said: "It will have a dark and moody feel so Amy would be absolutely perfect. It's another fantastic carrot being dangled to encourage her to give up drugs."

Speaking of fantastic carrots, the Mirror's 3am team report that Winehouse is moving to the Osbourne's house in Buckinghamshire in a bid to help her stay of them aforementioned drugs. According to 3am's Clemmie and Danielle, there are lots of benefits to Amy staying with the ex-Black Sabbath frontman and his family. For one, Winehouse and Kelly Osbourne are firm friends - and she couldn't very well go staying at Bryan Adams' house in Mustique and not allow Kelly to play host, too. For two, Osbourne junior has dealt with her own father's recovery form drug addiction, so she's an old pro when it comes to dealing with this kind of thing. For three, "The [Osbourne's] cottage is perfect. And there will be no temptations like there are in London." For four, there's really intense security at the Osbourne's place, thanks to a recent spate of break-ins in the area, so Winehouse will be totally secure. Intensely secure.

The thought of being on lock-down in the middle of nowhere with nothing but Ozzy Osbourne's shaky hands to keep you company doesn't seem so much a fantastic carrot as a thorny stick to us. But then, Winehouse has always had a devilish sense of humour to get her through difficult times, so we're sure she'd cope alright. For example, the Sun reports that the singer was spotted at a restaurant with her dad Mitch following a brief release from rehab to visit her husband in prison, where she was overheard telling bar staff, "I've just got out of rehab - I'm dying for a tequila." Now there's a carrot for you.

The Spice Girls recentlydiscussed the end of their tour in an interview with Canada's MuchMusic and eTalk, in which they apologised for not being able to play all the places they wanted to but said that they hadn't cut the tour short. Not at all. "Actually," assured Mel C, "We always intended to wrap up the tour at the end of January. As you know, the girls have children and family commitments."

Which seems like a reasonable enough explanation to us, but then we're not the Goss, the Daily Star's mouthpiece for eloquent sensationalism, so we didn't realise that the actual reason the tour has been offed is that there's a lonely ginge in the band, bringing everyone down.

"Imagine being the only single, ginger, shamelessly self-pitying member of a loved-up girlband," begin the Goss. And then imagine that that girl band is the Spice Girls, then you're really in trouble. The Goss portray a behind-the-scenes atmosphere rife with shameless self-pity and wind-ups bordering on the bitchy, with Posh taunting Geri with her solid, loving relationship with David Beckham.

"It's as if Girl Power never happened," sigh the Goss. After an opening paragraph taunting one member for being single and ginger, yes, the Goss, it does feel as if Girl Power never happened.

And finally, we hear the internet is really catching on in some parts of the world. So much so that Roger Daltrey is getting in on the action. He's posted a message on "The Who's first online home" saying: "I feel about as useful as a pork chop in a synagogue with all this internet bollocks... I hope you enjoy it." But don't be getting any ideas about what this means for the future of everyone's favourite mod-art-pop-rock duo, as Daltrey also writes: "But do me a favour, leave the screen turned off sometimes. Go out. Get a life." You don't need to tell us twice!
